Historically road network planning of rural area in India primarily focused on connecting various villages depending on their population size only. But a good understanding of the travel characteristics is a prerequisite for planning of road networks. Several studies have already established that there exists a strong positive co relation between rural roads development and agricultural development which leads to economic growth and socioeconomic development of a region. Studies on the pattern of rural transport reveal that rural trips involve many types of movement for a wide range of purpose of agriculture (farming and marketing of crops and livestock). This study is an attempt to ravels rural travel characteristics with special emphasis on agriculture. The study area is located in the eastern most part of the country is a community development block (Jalangi) of West Bengal. This is one of most fertile land in the world situated in the lower Gangetic plain of Murshidabad district. Agriculture is a major activity or important contributor to economy is almost every rural area however, in this region studies deals with travel related agricultural activities where the economy of Jalangi block primarily rests on agriculture as more than 75% of the block population directly depends on it. After analysis of primary ( through household survey) and secondary data the paper suggested that it is necessary to construct road link not only for population based settlement area but also link to agricultural field and market which will play a vital role for the socio economic development of rural area.
